I've updated the master list in the opening post to include all the TAR 22 teams final placement averages.

Bates and Anthony have the fifth best average among winning teams, and the tenth best average among all teams, so they had a very good Race, possibly helped by the early elimination of some well performing teams.

I will be posting the weekly leaderboard and placement average trends for TAR 23 after leg 2 airs, which I assume will be next week's episode.

Loving the obvious front runner: Nicole and Travis and the TAR 22 trend of all the 5 to 6 averages for most teams.

Obviously with a JKR pit stop and only one team having reached the pit stop, I won't be able to update this until after next week's episode, which will have both the leg 4 and leg 5 leaderboard trends update.

I forget how to read this...
 
Found it!
 
Quote

The numbers before the team name on each row shows that team's season and that team's overall order of finish in that season. The fraction is a numerator equal to the total ordinal placements from the legs that team raced in added together, divided by the number of legs that team raced. The final number is the average placement taken out to a value of one-ten thousandth. Where more than one team has the same average, a team that completed more legs is ranked ahead of a team that completed fewer legs, and then, for teams that competed for the same number of legs, a team from an earlier season is ranked ahead of a team from a later season. Finally, where there are teams from the same season, with the same average, and lasted for the same number of legs, the team that placed closer to first place is ranked ahead of the other team.

Keep in mind that in seasons 6, 7, 9, and 10, there was an überleg (which is treated as two legs for the purposes of this list), that seasons 18 and 19 had legs with pit stops that had no intervening rest period before the next leg started; that 12 teams competed in seasons 3, 4, 10, and 15, and that ten teams competed in season 8. (In season 22, David-Connor decided to withdraw after starting the fifth leg due to David’s injury in leg 2 that required immediate surgery. While they reached the pit stop before any of the teams completed the leg, they are shown as checking in last for computation purposes.) 

...
 
The lower the average, the better the team placed on average. The best possible average for a team that reaches the final three (for an 12-leg race with 11 teams) and therefore, completes the Race would be:
(1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1)  12/12= 1.0000.

The worse possible average for a team that reaches the final three (for an 12-leg race with 11 teams) would be:
(11+11+10+10+9+8+7+6+5+4+3+3) 87/12=7.2500.

Peach, that's for the master list in the first post; the seasonal leaderboard are the source for the team rankings in the master list.

Season 23 final placements have been added to the opening post.

Note concerning season 24: Since it's announced as an "All Star" Race. the number of teams listed will rise as was done with seasons 11 and 18, although the total number of Racers should not change unless there's a twist in there somewhere.

Season 24 Leaderboard Trends
« Reply #262 on: March 09, 2014, 11:03:16 PM »
As has been my practice the past several seasons, I will be posting a leaderboard trends for the remaining teams after each leg starting with leg 3.
This attempts to help sort out how the teams are trending in the most recent three legs, and the third prior leg will normally be posted as well for comparison.
When a trend is uncertain that is because of wild swings in that team's placement in the most recent legs. That is especially true this season, as several teams have wildly swing high-low-high or low-high-low these first three legs.
The other thread with the season by season, leg by leg placement will have the traditional leaderboard leg-by-leg placement to date for this season's teams, and the final placement average for eliminated teams. I plan to post that after each leg as well.


Leaderboard Trends After 3 Legs:
Code: [Select]
Team...................This Leg (3)...Prior Leg (2)..First Leg (1)..............Trend


Dave - Connor 1 4 3 rising
Jet - Cord 2 6 1 unclear
Leo - Jamal 3 7 5 unclear
Margie - Luke 4 2 4 steady
Herb - Nate 5 5 7 slowly rising
Caroline - Jennifer 6 3 9 unclear
John - Jessica 7 8 8 slowly rising
Brendon - Rachel 8 1 2 falling


Joey - Meghan 9 9 10 eliminated
Mark - Mallory 10 6 eliminated
Natalie - Nadiya --- 11 eliminated

The most steady team in a while goes home in 6th place, which is where they placed for the last 5 legs. And some teams keep bouncing up down and all around. Let's see what happens next week.

Sorry for the delay. had a lot going on much of last week, and having ISP connectivity issues after a hail storm Thursday night didn't help.

look for the updated ranking of all teams within a few days; as the list gets longer, it takes a little more time each season to keep it all in line. :)

The list has now been updated to include the season 24 all star teams with their final leg placement averages.

Assuming season 25 is all new teams and new Racers, we will have a total of 510 (!) Racers at the end of that season next December.

Connor and Dave enter the list as winners, with the fourth best average placement ever, just behind Eric-Jeremy (season 9), Rachel-Dave (season 20) and Meghan-Cheyne (season 15).

I'm sorry for not during the leg to leg leaderboard trends this season; things got a little crazy in RL, and by the time I could have we were close to the end of TAR 25.

I will be updating the Opening Post with TAR 25 either over the weekend or during Christmas week. That takes a little work to make sure everything is coded correctly and the paragraph breaks after every ten teams is correct.
